Feature Request: Add PopClip Extension #121

Closed a26nine closed 8 months ago

a26nine commented 8 months ago

PopClip is a MacOS app for text actions that provides the ability to take instant actions on the selected text.

It has a wide variety of extensions. It would be really helpful to have one for HeyNote, where the selected text can directly be pushed into a block in HeyNote.

Do you know if there are some simple measures we could take to make PopClip work with Heynote? They claim that it should work when "you select text in any app", and I wonder what is currently preventing it from working.

Sorry, I just re-read your text and realized I misunderstood what you were asking for.

I haven't used PopClip, but from glancing at their docs, I'm guessing that it should already be possible to create such an extension using AppleScript.

I created it some time ago: https://github.com/a26nine/popclip-heynote. Please feel free to make changes!
